Grant: Planning and Dissemination Grant - Institute Community Support

We propose to host a Learning Institute, which explores the ways in which healthy research relationships can contribute to the process of reconciliation. The title and focus of this year's proposed Institute "Reconciling Indigenous Research Relationships" will bring together Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers, trainees, and students, as well as organizational and community representatives. The agenda builds on the findings of our 2016 Learning Institute, which focused on the role of research in implementing the TRC recommendations. Goal: To catalyze the reconciliation of Indigenous research relationships within BC. Objectives: * Enhance participants' understanding of healthy Indigenous research relationships. * Provide networking opportunities for participants. * Facilitate research relationships among participants. * Provide reciprocal mentorship opportunities for community members, students and research trainees.
